Default 1948-49 leaf #1 joe d. ( orange background)

This color printing error is seen quite often. The normally Green background on the Joe DiMaggio
card is found with a pale Yellow color.

The Yellow ink is the 1st color pass in the 4-color printing process of these cards. This DiMaggio
card simply didn't get the final Blue ink pass.

Two examples of this type of printing error are shown in the scan in the my lower post, note the
Billy Johnson and Dick Wakefield cards......they exactly the same color errors.
